Founded by Syrian women, Oshana seeks to empower and rebuild the lives of compatriots uprooted by the ongoing war. The non-profit provides a nurturing environment for skilled women refugees displaced in Lebanon to restore their livelihoods by crafting exquisite homewares of heirloom quality for the global market. Working together, the women find a sense of home while preserving their cultural heritage. Oshana is a source of pride, happiness, and healing, living up to its name, which means "palm tree" in Aramaic, a symbol of life.
